Hidden Sky Light - Chapter 93

The waiter entered and served tea, and Chen Ling and Bo Jin just ended their simple greetings.

It was also the first time that Bai Jin met Chen Ling.

Nearly the emperor of the various countries, Bai Jin had almost met each other before. But what he met in Yan Korea was the first prince, the elder brother of Chen Ling. Chen Ling entered the East Palace after his brother passed away, so Bo Jin had never met before.

But not unfamiliar.

Among the neighboring countries, Yanhan is a very important neighboring country.

The geographical location of Yanhan is unique, and it once flourished for decades because of Emperor Wen’s hard work. It also annexed Beiyu, opened up the trade route with the Western Regions, and lengthened the hinterland and strategic leap.

But after Emperor Zhaowen’s death, Yanhan quickly declined, and then fell into chaos and war for more than two hundred years. It was not until the generation of Emperor Heng’s great-grandfather that the civil strife ended, and everything was left to be done. From the generation of Emperor Heng’s great-grandfather, Yan Han gradually recovered from the earlier decline, and at Emperor Heng’s place, the country was prosperous, and the signs of prosperity began to appear.

Bo Jin is no stranger to Chen Ling, because Chen Ling was the fourth prince who was brought back to the palace halfway through, and he had no foreign relatives, but he walked to the East Palace step by step, ascended the throne to the emperor, and got the support of Jingping Palace. , also won the trust of the courtiers.

Although Bo Jin had never met Chen Ling, he had heard of his greatness.

There is also the death of the little prince’s mother, and he took the prince by his side alone, leaving the harem vacant.

Bai Jin would also be curious.

But when I really saw Chen Ling today, he was gentle and handsome, cool and calm, without excessive desire to control and win or lose, and it was difficult to guess his mind.

interesting……

Bai Jin put down the teacup, gentle and courteous, “I’m bothering Your Majesty to come to the west this time, I’m causing trouble.”

“How could that be?” Chen Ling smiled, “Your Highness also heard about it. Last year, I didn’t pay attention, and there were some troubles in the middle school. This year, I was going to Huishan to pray for blessings, so it just happened to be on the way.”

Bai Jin smiled, “Small chaos can be calmed down, but long-term peace, good thing.”

Chen Ling also smiled, “I borrow your Highness’s auspicious words.”

Both of them took a sip of their tea cups and took another sip, neither hurried nor slow, and they didn’t mention the establishment of the city at all.

“This tea tastes a little special.” Bai Jin took a look.

Chen Ling nodded, “Your Highness has come out?”

Bai Jin nodded, “It’s just that the products are different, I don’t know the subtleties.”

Chen Ling said, “This is the spring tea before the Ming Dynasty. It is only in the Huishan area. It is slightly bitter and sweet. There is a lesson from the ancestors. When you go to Huishan to pray for blessings, everyone drinks this tea.

Bo Jin looked at Chen Ling and knew that there was something in his words, but there was no trace of it.

Is a very smart man.

Up to now, he didn’t mention a word, and Chen Ling didn’t even ask him about his intention to establish the city. He didn’t seem to care, nor was he in a hurry. He just slowly greeted him and sipped tea, as if he really came to Huishan. Concentrating on praying, I met him here for a chat.

After tasting it for a while, Bo Jin brought it up again, “Cang Yue was disrespectful earlier, and should apologize to His Majesty in person.”

Chen Ling suddenly seemed to have deliberately looked at the sky, and then changed the topic, “Let’s not talk about this for now, Your Highness has been busy all the way, take a rest early today, and talk about it tomorrow.”

Bo Jin was slightly startled, not knowing why, but he quickly understood, and he should have been politely hanging on him for one night.

Bai Jin smiled and said, “That’s fine.”

Chen Ling said in the middle of the court, “Shao Feng, send your Highness for me.”

Sheng Wenyu entered, Chen Ling got up, and Bai Jin also got up, “Your Majesty, see you tomorrow.”

Chen Ling nodded.

When Sheng Wenyu led Bo Jin out of the garden and went to another place, Chen Ling loosened his collar and almost broke out in cold sweat.

Her menstrual period is always inaccurate, just now, she suddenly noticed…

Chen Ling had a headache.

***

In another garden, Bo Jin said to the twelve- or thirteen-year-old guard beside him, “Go and rest too.”

Grape was the only person beside Bai Jin who didn’t wear a blue-faced fang mask. He was a guard, not a secret guard. The dark guards next to Cai were all waiting in the garden, and only Grape kept following behind Bo Jin.

“His Royal Highness, Lord Yumu is not here, I will guard the garden!” Grape pointed to the roof, but whenever Lord Yumu was there, he would always stay on the roof.

Bai Jin looked at him and said warmly, “Just be happy.”

As soon as the words fell, Grape went out of the room, and a dexterous somersault turned up, “I’m coming up, Your Highness!”

Bai Jin smiled and hummed softly.

***

In Chen Lingyuan, Sheng Wenyu sent Bo Jin back and then turned back, “Your Majesty, I have already sent your Highness back.”

Chen Ling should be fine.

As soon as her menstrual period came, she began to feel a little lethargic, but she bumped into Bai Jin when she was there.

Chen Ling tried her best not to feel uncomfortable in her stomach, “What’s so special about picking up Bo Jin today.”

Tomorrow will continue on the road to Licheng, so Qu Bianying has taken Ziyiwei to explore the road ahead of time, and Sheng Wenyu is here now.

Sheng Wenyu replied, “There’s nothing next to him, it’s just Your Majesty. This time, when Cang Yue Dong Palace came to Sizhou City, he only brought more than 30 horses with him. It looks like they are all dark guards…”

Thirty rides?

Chen Ling frowned slightly, “Did you read that right?”

Sheng Wenyu shook his head, “Wei Chen also checked with General Qu, since she received Cang Yue East Palace today, there are only more than thirty secret guards beside Cang Yue East Palace, no one else. Listening to the guards around East Palace, There are indeed only more than thirty people in their line.”

Chen Ling said solemnly, “Then he did it on purpose.”

Sheng Wenyu was slightly startled.

Chen Ling said in a low voice, “Cang Yue had a secret guard borrowing the way earlier, and seeing more than 30 cavalry now, there must be more than 30 cavalry, he used this to let him know that even in Yanhan, he can still Take control of the overall situation and retreat…”

Sheng Wenyu’s face changed slightly.

Chen Ling said again, “It’s alright, just before the negotiation, add 10% of the chips to put pressure on him, don’t worry about him, rest first, we have to go on the road tomorrow.”

Sheng Wenyu hesitated.

“What’s wrong?” Chen Ling asked again, thinking he was going to continue talking about Bo Jin.

Sheng Wenyu still said, “Your Majesty’s face is not very good-looking.”

Chen Ling said calmly, “I haven’t had a good rest in the past two days. I’ll be fine in two days. I’ll take a rest earlier.”

Sheng Wenyu looked at her, originally wanted to say something, but finally swallowed it back and bowed, “Wei Chen retire.”

Chen Ling nodded.

When Sheng Wenyu went out, Chen Lingcai lay back on the couch in discomfort, frowning slightly.

Thirty rides?

In this Sizhou City, I don’t know how many Cang Yue Dark Guards are hiding in…

On the other hand, Bo Jin attaches great importance to matters near Licheng.

That is, the matter of Xirong…

***

In the morning of the next day, Chen Ling and Bo Jin each had breakfast, and then got on the carriage to Licheng together.

The whole journey of the carriage was very long, and it was just right to speak on the way through the carriage.

Except for Bai Jin and Chen Ling, Grape and Sheng Wenyu followed in the carriage, and everyone else followed outside the carriage. The hooves of the horses splashed and they were all noisy and squeaking. The sound of the carriage could only be heard inside the carriage, and neither did Bai Jin and Chen Ling. Avoid Grape and Sheng Wenyu.

“I came to Licheng this time because I have something important to discuss with Your Majesty.” Bai Jin spoke first.

Chen Ling said straight to the point, “Your Highness is talking about Xirong?”

Bo Jin did not shy away, “Yes.”

Chen Ling chuckled, “Actually, I don’t quite understand that Xirong does not border Cang Yue, why does Your Highness care about Xirong?”

After Chen Ling said that, he stared at him, “It’s more reasonable to care about Yan Han’s affairs.”

The implication is that Cang Yue’s drunkard’s intention is not to drink.

Bai Jin also stared at him, “Yanhan’s geographical location is special, if there is any change in Yanhan, the surrounding will change. Yanhan is the barrier to the west of Cang Yue, only when Yan Han is stable, can the west of Cang Yue be stable. In the same way, Xi Rong is just west of Yan Han, Xi Rong is stable, and Yan Han is stable in the west… Therefore, it is reasonable to care about Xi Rong.”

Chen Ling looked at Bo Jin again, all the words were progressive, and they were considered many times.

Before Chen Ling could speak, Bai Jin asked in turn, “Has Your Majesty heard of Harmiya?”

Chen Ling’s eyes were slightly stagnant.

She never thought that Bo Jin would suddenly mention the name Harmiya, and she didn’t know how much Bo Jin knew.

Chen Ling said, “I heard that he has been very active recently.”

Bai Jin said warmly, “Your Majesty really knows a lot.”

Chen Ling looked at him and suddenly mentioned, “Your Highness mentioned earlier that Cang Yue An Guard borrowed because of Harmia, right?”

Chen Ling suddenly mentioned it, and Bo Jin was also slightly stunned, Chen Ling had a panoramic view.

Bai Jin smiled and said, “Yes.”

Chen Ling looked at him, “I am really curious, what does Your Highness want to do?”

This time, Bai Jin’s eyes seemed to see through her, “Yanhan has been in constant friction with Xirong at the border of Licheng, because the tribes of Xirong are scattered and go their own way. Today this Biluo is rubbing against Yanhan, and after two days, another tribe comes again, and the fight is over. One after another. Not only in the west, but also in the north of Yanhan, Baer, ​​Xirong and Baer are all facing the same situation, so Yanhan has been struggling to deal with it. But around Cang Yue, in addition to Baer, ​​Yanhan, Nanshun, Chang The regimes of several countries have been stable for a long time, and each has its own considerations, but conflicts will not break out.”

Chen Ling said in a deep voice, “Whether it is Xirong or Baal, there are many tribes in the clan, and it is not so easy to achieve political stability. Even if there is, it may not last long.”

Bai Jin looked at her and said, “With enough checks and balances, it will last a long time. Earlier, Baer had internal peace and stability for more than a hundred years. At that time, Yan Han, Changfeng, Cang Yue and Nanshun border gates were all peaceful for a long time. Time. Right now, for Xirong, Harmia has ambitions. He already has five tribal alliances under him. With him, there is little war in the west of Xirong, and there will be more tribes to join the alliance, but the east of Xirong does not Same.”

Chen Ling’s eyes were sharp, “Your Highness said this because Cang Yue and Xi Rong do not share a border, and there will be no direct conflict, but I really can’t think of any benefit to Yan Han for Cang Yue to support Harmiya in the west. ? Someday bite Yan Han back?”

Bai Jin smiled, “If you don’t support him, won’t Yan Han be bitten?”

Chen Ling remained silent.

Bai Jin continued, “The tribal alliance within Xirong is not the same as the unity in Yanhan and Cang Yue. They will restrict each other and fight within each other. Such checks and balances will make Xirong’s surroundings more stable. No matter where it is. , Long-term peace and stability is the best soil for recuperation, and for Yan Han, the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages.”

Chen Ling said in a low voice, “Halmia is too ambitious, not a kind person.”

Bai Jin continued, “People without ambition can’t hold down the rest of the Xirong tribe.”

Chen Ling looked at him, “What does Your Highness want to do?”

Bai Jin said, “He was too arrogant, so I asked the dark guards to chase him all the way, arresting him once, releasing him once, and arresting him seven times in total. Now, to establish a city is to meet Harmia with His Majesty.”

Chen Ling looked at Bai Jin, and remembered Shen Ci, “I haven’t figured out one thing, so I ask Your Highness to enlighten me. For Cang Yue, shouldn’t a place like Xirong be as chaotic as possible? We can help Cang in the west. Yue can check and balance Yan Han, but also Nan Shun?”

Bai Jin smiled.

Chen Ling also smiled, “I’m curious, what does Your Majesty want?”

Bai Jin leaned closer, “What Cang Yue wants is not hegemony, but peace at home, Chen Ling, peace is good for everyone, there are many things that can be done other than war. What Cang Yue wants to do is these things…”

“Why do I believe you?” Chen Ling slowly restrained his smile.

The corner of Bai Jin’s mouth tickled slightly, and then he looked at Chen Ling, his eyes seemed to see through Chen Ling again, “Cang Yue is willing to form an alliance with Yan Han, if Yan Han is coerced by Ba in the north, Cang Yue will send troops, Your Majesty, this Do you have enough chips?”

A rare look of confusion flashed across Chen Ling’s eyes.
